Nunca Esquecerei Lyrics in English Amado Batista
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Nunca Esquecerei by Amado Batista from Portuguese to English.
Um dia eu sai de casa
One day I left home
Procurando uma vida melhor
Looking for a better life
Mas que vida eu fui encontrar
But what a life I found
Trilhando caminhos
Treading paths
Entrei em espinhos
I got into thorns
E ali não pude ficar
And there I couldn't stay
Trilhando caminhos
Treading paths
Entrei em espinhos
I got into thorns
E ali não pude ficar
And there I couldn't stay
Nunca mais eu vou deixar você
Never again will I let you
Chorando assim e sem viver
Crying like this and without living
E quando a noite chegava
And when night came
Eu sentia medo da solidão
I felt fear of loneliness
Parecia o vento lá fora
It seemed the wind outside
Trazia um recado
Brought a message
Que você mandava
That you sent
Pro meu coração
To my heart
Trazia um recado
Brought a message
Que você mandava
That you sent
Pro meu coração
To my heart
Naquele momento eu senti
At that moment I felt
Que o mundo ia desabar
That the world was going to collapse
Porque
Because
Um dia eu sai de casa
One day I left home
Procurando uma vida melhor
Looking for a better life

Trilhando — Treading / Paving
Trilhando comes from the verb trilhar, meaning to tread, to follow a path, or to pave a way. It's a more evocative word than simply 'walking' or 'going'.
In the song, the lyric "Trilhando caminhos, entrei em espinhos" (Treading paths, I entered thorns) uses trilhando to paint a picture of the singer actively navigating life's journey, which unfortunately led him into difficult situations. It highlights the deliberate, yet sometimes misguided, nature of his choices.
